By Claudine Hodges


They say that a picture can paint a thousand words. Some will argue that this is not necessarily true. After all, words are the major means by which you can convey a clear message. One image could mean several things for different people. But while other see that as a disadvantage, those who love art appreciates it.

Many photography subjects are gaining popularity right now. Imagination is the limit when it comes to choosing what looks good in the lens. Among the top picks are the insect subjects. They are interesting, unique and are natural. This is the reason behind the proliferation of insect photography prints for sale. There is a certain market that demands photographer to take a picture of these creatures especially in Harrisonburg city in VA.

The quality of the photo however is dependent on the skills and thought placed by the photographer upon capturing it. Some appears ordinary but conveys much more meaning while others are just so awesome that it is impossible to miss them even in a pool of selection. All memorable and good insect photos have notable qualities and we have listed them down below.

First is the composition. Anything that looks nice has great composition in them. Even an untrained eye can say when a picture looks great or not. One may not be able to explain the technicalities behind the beauty of the photo, but it is the composition which balances and provides form to the image. Amateur photographers may struggle on this part, but the good news is, this can be learned over time.

Find the focus. You can look at the image as a whole, but you cannot have more focus than one. There has to be one element on the photo that outstands the other. In an insect themed photography, the focus should be the insect. One way of achieving this is by blurring the background of the subject.

Story. Some say that stories are only good if humans are involved. Unless there is human participation, the photo need not to convey any story. Wrong. Even abstract paintings bring out certain emotions to its audience. Same thing applies to photographs. Insects are also living creatures. They hunt for food and run away from predators. Capturing these activities in a picture already has a story in it.

Contrast. There are times when it is easier to see something when its opposite is visible. For instance, it is easier to see a single black dot if it is against a white background. If you are taking a photo of a lady bug with a black and red color, you can contrast it with the green background of the forest. Contrast can come in many form. It could be the size, shape and color of your subjects.

Fifth is the quality of the photo in general. This refers to how clear the photo is. The message of a photograph is only as clear as how it is taken. If the quality is blurry, small but important details may not be highlighted.

You do not need to be an expert to pick the right insect photo to buy. You just need to be guided accordingly as to the right characteristics to consider. Try to think as well of your purpose in buying the printed material or the location where you want to have it placed in case it is for display.
